The Philippines has a number of beach destinations where you can pitch a tent, spend the night under a starlit sky, and watch the sunrise. Here are some of those places.
WHAT'S IN THIS GUIDE?
Fortune Island
Batangas is a popular place for beachgoers from Makati and nearby cities. The province’s beaches are easily accessible by either public or private transportation. If you plan to go camping, add Fortune Island to your itinerary. The island distinguishes itself from the others with its Acropolis-like pillars. Enjoy nature at its rawest by pitching a tent and gazing at the stars when it is completely dark. Good company, white coarse sand, and blue waters combine for an epic weekend getaway.
Calaguas Island
Calaguas has become a popular beach destination over the years. Its increasing popularity has diminished some of its untouched appeal that made it a go-to place for those who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. It may have lost some of its unspoiled luster, but it is still a good choice for those who want to go camping. Its powdery bone-white sand, cerulean waters, and rough and rugged appearance can still elicit some of the wonders you’d feel if you have visited the island years before. Spending a night allows you to watch the sunset and sunrise.
Sambawan Island
Biliran has an idyllic and laid-back vibe that attracts visitors. One of the premier destinations of the province is Sambawan Island. It may not have fine white sand, but it has a beautiful overlooking view, cerulean waters, and the makings of a relaxing day and night away from the stress of city life. Bring your own tent so you don’t have to rent; there’s a pitching fee but it’s affordable. Spend the night in the company of friends or family while enjoying the beach.
Nacpan Beach
Palawan is often on the list of best islands in the world; this comes as no surprise because the province has plenty of beaches worth the recognition on their own.

For those who want to spend the night on the beach, one of their options is to camp at Nacpan. The beach offers a place where you can enjoy nature and the company of friends or your loved one. The fine sand shore and fetching beachscape add to its charm.

The island is also a good place to watch the sunset, this adds another incentive to spend the night.
Kalanggaman Island

The white-sand beach, clear waters, and rolling hills make for a perfect backdrop for selfies, groufies, and rest and relaxation. The camping ground is wide and good for big groups; weekends see the most action. if you go on a weekday, you might have the beach to yourself.
